The cedar of Lebanon, plant of renown, Hath bowed to the hyssop His wide spreading crown, The Son of the highest, an infant is laid, On the breast of His mother, that lowliest maid. [Chorus] All glory to God in the highest we sing. And peace upon earth thro' the newly born King. 2. From the Star of the Sea the glad Sunlight hath shined, Springs the Lion of Judah from Naphtali's Hind, The Life from the dying, the Rose from the thorn, The Maker of all things of Maiden is born. [Chorus] 3. The manger of Bethlehem opens once more The gates of that Eden where man dwelt of yore, And He who is lying, a Child, in the Cave, Hath conquered the foeman, hath ransomed the slave. [Chorus] 4. In the midst of the Garden the Tree of Life stands, And offers His twelve fruits to lips and to hands, For the Lord of Salvation, the Gentiles' Desire, Hath ta'en from the Cherubs their sword-blade of fire. [Chorus] 5. On the hole of the aspic the sucking Child lays And His hand on the den of the cockatrice lays, And the Dragon, which over a fallen world reigned, By the Seed of he Woman is vanquished and chained. [Chorus] 6. To Him who hath loved us and sent us His Son, To Him who the Victory for us hath won, To Him who sheds on us His seven-fold rays, Be honour and glory, salvation and praise.
